The young Latino fighter was primed and looking swell The challenger was ole Toerag, a chap we all knew well Wearing his pink boxer shorts with lace around the band He had the ref laughing so hard that he could hardly stand When the fight had started then it didn’t last too long The bell only had time to ding and never finished dong The Latin fighter smacked ole Toe on sounding of the bell It knocked his pink trunks ‘round his knees and caused his eyes to swell The Latin fighter nailed him with a left and then a right Toerag reeled around the ring it was an awful sight His foe then battered poor Toerag from one side to the other Finally ole Toerag dropped and said “I need my Mother” They took him to the dressing room and put him on a table It took nearly a half a day until ole Toe was stable Both eyes were black, his nose was broke, he’d lost a tooth or two When all his buddies saw him they asked “Who did this to you?” Toe just smiled a toothless smile and said “I had a fight” “But that Latino fighter got the best of me tonight” One buddy said “Those Latin fighters really can be rough” Ole Toe said “Yes, I didn’t know that JLo was so tough” Happy Birthday Toe! |

Yo Steve, Toerag got what was coming to him--getting beat up by a girl and all. I like this poem. Bobby |

WOW! Ole Toerag couldn't even take on JLo! The fellow's sicker than I thought. Maybe he should challenge Don Knotts! No, wait, Don's deceased...well, that would make the odds about even! ![]() Thanks for letting us know, Steve. Always good to keep tabs on the Toe ![]() |

Looks like Toe is still taking punches from every corner. I hope he'll be able to recover soon. Enjoyed. "We'll chase them like rats across the tundra." |

I'm sure Toe enjoys the humor in these poems as much as the rest of us do. Ida |

This made me smile. JLo is one tough lady. |
